Currently Playing: NTSB Reveals Prelim on the Cessna Slammed Into a Police Helicopter

The NTSB's preliminary report on the Carlisle, Pennsylvania midair collision lays out, almost second by second, how a Cessna 150 and a Pennsylvania State Police helicopter ended up in the same airspace. A physician died in the crash; two troopers were seriously injured but survived. This breakdown covers the full timeline from the NTSB report — what the safety systems caught, what they couldn't, and what investigators still don't know.
